What's doing the sweetening

Sidekick New Zealand honey + real fruit
Prebiotic sodas Stevia, plus added fibre
Zero-sugar sodas Stevia + erythritol
Regular soda Cane sugar / high-fructose corn syrup

Sweetened with New Zealand honey and real fruit. No cane sugar. No stevia. No erythritol.

Customers praised this healthy soda for its authentic fruit flavors and natural taste. Reviews highlighted it's "not too sweet" and refreshing, sweetened with honey rather than artificial sweeteners. All flavors—strawberry, cherry, mango, and pear—received positive feedback. The main concern was delivery time (2 weeks) and limited retail availability across NZ stores.

  • Not too sweet, very refreshing to drink on a hot day. They haven't lost the authentic fruit taste.
  • Can't decide which flavour we like best, they're all so good and refreshing!
  • Not too sweet which I love. Tastes natural.

Amazing product

Super delicious soda. Only issue is the time it takes for delivery. 2 weeks is a long time for an order to be dispatched. But the product itself is really good

Good questions
How much sugar is in Sidekick compared to regular soda?

Most big-brand soft drinks sit around 10–11g sugar per 100mL. Sidekick is much lower — still a treat, just one you can drink more often. Check each flavour’s nutrition panel for the exact number.
What do you use to sweeten Sidekick?

New Zealand honey and natural sugar from real fruit. No cane sugar, stevia, erythritol, monk fruit, aspartame, or sucralose.
Does it taste like vinegar?

A splash of apple cider vinegar gives Sidekick a little tang and a crisp finish — more like lemon in a drink than a vinegar burn. Some people notice the kick more than others.
Can I use Sidekick as a mixer?

Yes. Sidekick works as a real-fruit base for cocktails, mocktails, spritzes, or a simple serve over ice.
